Reasons Why Church Members Do Not Regularly Attend Church, Alan C. Mccullough May 2006

Reasons Why Church Members Do Not Regularly Attend Church, Alan C. Mccullough

Doctoral Dissertations

A survey was mailed to church members requesting reasons they do not attend and whether Scripture addresses attendance.

The goal of this project is to better inform and equip churches for reaching and ministering to those who do not regularly attend.
